In the DPRK talked about getting air defense systems to combat the "stealth".

Against the background of the purchase by the South Korean authorities of fifth-generation F-35 fighters, North Korea announced that Seoul had decided to take the “wrong” path contributing to destabilization of the situation in the region, and therefore Pyongyang intends to get air defense systems capable of hitting fighters- "Invisible".

«There is no doubt that the acquisition of F-35A ... is aimed at gaining military superiority over the neighboring countries of the region and, first of all, in order to open the gates for the invasion of the North in case of an emergency on the Korean Peninsula ", Reports the Korea Central Telegraph Agency, adding that against this background Pyongyang will get a weapon to fight F-35.

Considering the fact that most of the air defense systems in service with the DPRK are Soviet, some of which are more than 60 years old, analysts didn’t rule out that we can easily talk about the latest Russian C-400 “Triumph” systems that can recognize "Aims at distances up to 200 kilometers. It is not ruled out that the corresponding air defense systems can also be received from China, but there are no official comments on this subject.

“If the DPRK wants to develop its own air defense systems, then this may take several years, possibly a decade. Today, effective weapons to fight stealth are only in service with Russia and China, which does not exclude the likelihood that Pyongyang can negotiate with Moscow or Beijing. ”, - the expert Avia.pro marks.
